One of my contacts or associates in VT suggested offering really high accuracy pistols and rifles at the VT gun shows late this year (probably fall or early winter). Perhaps to commemorate the events in Burlington.
So far, the impression I've had is that this would not be worth the time and trouble for me, and would take a valuable table (or several) away from others. However, the requests were strong, so I'm asking for views of interest, from those who might attend the VT gunshows in the central-state area. For those out of state, the guns are available already by internet request and FFL transfer, or pickup in IL or NH with acceptable IDs.
The guns to be offered all are used, and would be from this list:
Anschutz 54, 54 SM, 1403, 1407, 1408, 1413, 1807, 1813, 1907, 1913, 2007, 2007/2013, 2013, including a few true LH guns
Feinwerkbau AW93, 2600, 2602
Hammerli 106, 120, 150, 160, 208, 208S, 212, 215, 215S,
Pfuff Match
SAKO TriAce
SIG P230, 240 (all calibers)
Steyr Match
Walther GSP, OSP, GSP Sporter (rifle), KK-S, KK-M, UIT, KK Club, KK100, KK200, KKJ, JR, JR-M, P5/C, P88/C
Tanner 300M 7.5, .308
G&E 200: 7.5, .308
Keppeler Free Rifle: 6mmBR
S&W 41
Hi Standard (CT) Victor
and a few others.
Please let me know if you think I should entertain this idea further (and if so, which guns would interest you, as not all of them can be displayed).
For those wanting left handed guns, LH versions of the following potentially will be available:
Steyr Match
Pfuff (but is on hold already)
Hammerli 150, 160, 208/215/S models
GSP
Anschutz 1807, 1907
FWB 2600
High Standard Olympic (.22s)
In general, the S&W41, HS Victor, Hammerli 212 and some of the 208, a rare P240, the P5 and P88, and GSP rifle are ambidexterous. More or less.
The RH grips on many of the others are very suitable for LH use, except on the free pistols. The Pfuff is unusual among the free pistols, and is a true LH or RH gun, unless converted.

If the makers, models, and such are just Greek or Chinese to you but you have an idea of what you want as to accuracy, quality, price, range or distance, caliber and such, let me know and I'll try and indicate what might fit your needs. If I won't have anything that would be a good fit, I'll just let you know. I'm not interested in trying to sell something that isn't a near-perfect or really good match with your needs.
Most of these guns have 0.1-0.3 MOA accuracy. When offered for sale, the hope is to have the same level of accuracy in matching the gun with the user.
Please remember, this is not a guns for sale posting, but a request for views on whether to present these guns at VT gun shows, or not.
